Wisdom tooth

Today I pulled my upper-left wisdom tooth out at Neibauer, Fairfax, VA. Did my wisdom left me behind along with the tooth just wondering? Generic instruction after tooth pull out:

Put a gauge 30-45 minutes after the operation. Gently keep pressing the gauge into the operation site so that blood starts to clot. Usually the gauge that is put there by the doctor has a numbing gel applied on it. This gel eases out the place as long as the gauge is there.
